I don't disagree with this at all. I think Smytty should retire now. I just don't like the petty sniping at him on this board. He has earned at least a little respect in my opinion. There are thousands of players that hang on a little too long. It is the competitive nature in them that blinds them to the reality of their skills. That is no excuse for this type of crap though.

Agreed 100%.

Smyth has been a long term Oiler, and while his jersey won't be hung in the rafters, I can see him being named to an Oiler Wall of Honor.

Smyth is 6th in all time Oiler points and second in all time Oiler games.
